Problem is that pit bulls are a hot commodity, as are many other breeds of dogs -- hence the id tattoo and imbedded chip.

It would take one crazy mo-fo to grab one, but I imagine they incapacitate the dog first.

Sorry to hear that. I would have not calling the cops. Since they already passed out, I would sliced all four tires and drove off.

4 tires = $40/each (based on 14" elcheapo) x 4 = $160 = cost to fix sunroof = satisfactions

evil sob's... Few days ago, our instructor brought his bike to class (honda f4? or r4? something or other)... After class he was still inside, doing some work. I went outside and saw somebody from class on his bike... I chewed him out and wanted to beat the crap outta him., but their were other kids around.
It really pisses me off that people mess with other peoples stuff...
I allways carry my regal 3 1/2 blade locking knive that has part of it surrated... it WILL cut tire (havent cut somebody elses... but i had a slow sidewall eaking tire and got boared... NOT on the benz, on my $40 mazda http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v644/NathanEbert/truck03.jpg)

Sorry to hear, And have them dust for prints if you can, might get lucky (unlikely unfortionatly)

Sorry to hear about your misfortune and hope insurance covers it.

You never know what punks like those will do when they are drunk or stoned. I agree that they will probably work their way up to more bold acts, but unfortunately, some poor victims will suffer until the creeps wind up in jail, hopefully for a long time.

Sorry to hear about the loss Hattie. Hope you can get it fixed up. Next time take a tire iron to their shins. They will talk pretty fast once they get popped. Talking leads to confessions and cash. RT

I understand where you are coming from but I must disagree with you because slitting their throats is just too humane. As long as they were passed out I think they should have been castrated. They would no longer be able to pollute our gene pool and they would have to go through the rest of their lives with the stigma of being neutered against their will.

John it's not just a nice thought with me, it's a situation that I dream of. I'm sick and tired of brainless idiots vandalizing these cars and I have real pity for the victims (cars and owners).

You know I was thinking the same thing. Empty parking lot in a big state park, no one to hear you scream! I should have tought them some respect for MB's with a tire iron.

It really hasn't bothered me that much luckly they just trashed the sun roof and Allstate seems to be covering it so far. I am waiting to hear back from our insurance agent and will get an estimate tomarrow from MB of North Haven. I don't want a hack job working on my MB. I am guessing the repair runs north of $1k.

I am lucky the alarm went off though, if not they probably would have done far more damage.

My friend sudjested that I should make my own alarm. I could suspend a hand garnade from the headliner with a wire going from every door and the sunroof to the pin. That would deter vandals.
